Aurore feels confident to apply for personal assistant roles, since enjoying the PA course at Pitman…

Name: Aurore Pamah
Course: Executive PA Diploma
Institution: Pitman Training Centre  in the City, EC2

‘I chose to do this personal assistant diploma because the hours were well suited to me and my work pattern and the flexible learning meant I could achieve the PA diploma in less than a year. The centre is in the City by Bank tube station, which was near my workplace. I also had the option of having sessions in the Oxford Circus centre at weekends. When we arrived on a typical course session, we were greeted by a training advisor who registered us in the centre and told us what workstation we were on. The training sessions were very flexible and I chose what order I learned the courses in. Since I studied for the PA course I am now confident that I could apply for a PA job because I have all the skills and have a better understanding of what is required from me. Taking the course has also helped me gain confidence in myself. To come to Pitman is easy as it fits around your life. Enrolling onto the PA course is easy too – the atmosphere is great and the students and staff are all really nice. I am looking at upgrading to the Executive Plus PA Diploma as it covers bookkeeping and payroll, which I would really like to learn.’
